As far as I can remember its a charity event in the grounds of the home. Not been before but im told its a v. good show.

It is a home for retired merchant seamen: http://www.mswmsociety.org.uk/

The lake in the grounds is used by Springbok Mariners MBC and also for the popular Alfold Model Boating Weekend organised by Alan Colson.

Some nice photos there, and a very good one of my Cumbrae! A good turn out with several traders but a very hot day!

Well done Alan and Wendy and all of your helpers. Without you we would not have a show that is always in our minds.
What a brilliant show this year, everything in its place and working, the sun shone all weekend, the ice creams kept going and the toilets were filled early!! Wendy sorted the problem straight away with her Girl Guide skills. If it wasn't for her installing the GG's Toilet Tents and loos there would have been a lot of watered bushes or even raising the lake by a foot.
Alan has a new four by four - did any one take a picture of it cause I left my camera at home. I knew I should have taken it eh Alan.
Well done and thank you from ALL of us.
Graham

Glad you left your camera at home Graham, so did I, need new batteries. Happy that others took theirs and took photo's of the show. Please post more. Got to go and count the cash now.

I have some bad news for all Traders, Steamboat Phil bought me a pint at Alfold on Saturday evening

and broke into the famous £20-00 note.

Just been reading some other posting, I see it's taken Martin a whole week to annonce the Wicksteed date for next year. We finished at Alfold 23 hours and 40 minutes ago, we will go again on 4th/5th June 2011

Corposant · « **Reply #67 on:** June 07, 2010, 04:28:50 pm »

Well done Alan and many thanks to you and all who helped for another excellent show. Lots of brilliant models, interesting people to talk to and well supported by traders (and the weather!). The Portsmouth MBC display certainly went off with a bang!
